Fire!We were all in my aunt's kitchen at the back of her huge rambling Victorian house. I was only small and had wandered off to go to the loo, but given up after finding the hall full of smoke. "That was quick," my mum said after a few minutes. "Yes - it's all smoky," I replied.
I've never seen adults move so fast.
So, like my cousin who'd managed to set fire to the roof, tell us your fire stories.

SupernoodlesI used to quite often go out boozing straight from work and end up back home at about 10pm, pretty roasted by then after having downed about a bottle and half of vino on an empty stomach.
One particular night, I got home and was feeling rather peckish, so I had a little rummage in the cupboards and found a packet of chicken flavour supernoodles - food of the gods as any right-minded pisshead will testify.
While the kettle was boiling I quickly got ready for bed and put on my dressing gown, then headed back into the kitchen and proceeded to make my tasty snack on the gas hob. Unfortunately I got distracted while I was stirring in the flavour sachet and ended up setting fire to my dressing gown sleeve - still, it gave me an excuse for throwing the gown away - it had belonged to an ex who turned out to be a bit of a wanker. So it wasn't all bad. And the supernoodles were ace as always.
